A home energy assessor walks through your house and tells you what to do first, what can wait and what isn’t worth doing. It takes the guesswork out of where to spend your money.
A common sign
“I want to make the house cheaper to run, but I don’t know where to start.”
About home energy assessments and audits
An assessor looks at your insulation, draughts, windows, heating, cooling, hot water and appliances, and how you use them. Some use tools like thermal cameras to find hidden heat loss.
You usually receive a written report with recommendations in order of priority. You can use it to get quotes, compare installers and plan upgrades over time.
Knowing which upgrades to do first
High bills without an obvious cause
Planning upgrades over several years
Ask whether the assessor sells or installs any of the upgrades they recommend. Independent advice is easier to trust.

A professional home energy assessment shows where your house loses heat and power, so you don’t waste money on upgrades you don’t need.

The government rating for a home that already exists, run under NatHERS. A star rating for the house you live in, rather than one for a house on a plan.

A star rating for a home that is still on paper. The assessor works from the plans for a new build or a major renovation, usually for the building permit, so nobody needs to visit a house that does not exist yet.

A blower door measures how leaky the house actually is, so sealing work can be checked rather than hoped at.

A camera that shows exactly where the heat is leaving, which is rarely where people assume.
